Straightness Measurement Optics Kits: 1-30m axis length

Additional optic kits are available to enable measurement of surface flatness and squareness of axes.

The same optics can be used with XL-80 or ML10 systems, ensuring consistency of measurement set-ups and procedures. All measurements are interferometric and therefore use the traceable international standard wavelength of laser light, allowing you to have total confidence in the results.

Straightness measurement optics kit: 1 - 30 m axis length

These optics can be used to measure the horizontal straightness error in linear axes from 1 m up to 30 m in length when using the XL-80 laser system. They also enable measurement for parallelism of axes.

Each long range straightness kit contains:

1 straightness interferometer

1 straightness retroreflector

2 alignment targets

Angular measurement optics kit (calibrated)

These optics allow angular pitch and yaw measurements to be made with a lower measurement uncertainty than with standard optics. Each retroreflector is supplied with a calibration certificate and marked with a calibration factor.

Each calibrated angular measurement kit contains:

1 angular retroreflector

1 angular interferometer

2 alignment targets

calibration certificate

Part number: A-8003-2532

Specification as for standard angular optics but angular accuracy term is reduced from ±0.2% to ±0.04%, when the calibration factor is entered into LaserXL software.

Also available with steel housings for greater thermal stability.

Linear and angular combination kit

This optics combination kit is a cost saving alternative for users who wish to perform both linear and angular measurements.

Each combination kit contains:

1 linear retroreflector and clamp screws

1 angular retroreflector

1 angular interferometer

3 alignment targets

Part number: A-8003-2774

Straightness measurement optics kit: 0.1 - 4 m axis length

These optics allow the measurement of horizontal straightness error in linear axes up to 4 m in length to be made. They also enable axis parallelism to be measured.

These optics can be used to measure the horizontal straightness error in linear axes from 1 m up to 30 m in length when using the XL-80 laser system. They also enable measurement for parallelism of axes.
